| 3 | You held back your fury. You kept back your blazing anger. | You withdrew all your wrath; you turned from your hot anger. | You set aside all your wrath and turned from your fierce anger. | |
| 4 | Now restore us again, O God of our salvation. Put aside your anger against us once more. | Restore us again, O God of our salvation, and put away your indignation toward us! | Restore us again, God our Savior, and put away your displeasure toward us. | |

But let them not return to their foolish ways. | Let me hear what God the LORD will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, to his saints; but let them not turn back to folly. | I will listen to what God the LORD says; he promises peace to his people, his faithful servants— but let them not turn to folly. | |

| 10 | Unfailing love and truth have met together. Righteousness and peace have kissed! | Steadfast love and faithfulness meet; righteousness and peace kiss each other. | Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other. | |
| 11 | Truth springs up from the earth, and righteousness smiles down from heaven. | Faithfulness springs up from the ground, and righteousness looks down from the sky. | Faithfulness springs forth from the earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven. | |
| 12 | Yes, the LORD pours down his blessings. Our land will yield its bountiful harvest. | Yes, the LORD will give what is good, and our land will yield its increase. | The LORD will indeed give what is good, and our land will yield its harvest. | |
| 13 | Righteousness goes as a herald before him, preparing the way for his steps. | Righteousness will go before him and make his footsteps a way. | Righteousness goes before him and prepares the way for his steps. | |
